Efcc clutching at straws and chasing shadows. Now that Daura Lawal is out of the picture, it's payback time for the midget dwarf Magu to rip off pounds of flesh from his enemies.

Here in America

In Criminology

This is what we referred to as an unintelligent coverup

"PREMIUM TIMES learnt that Mr Ekpeyong was released after the EFCC agents realised he was unable yo provide much information about the controversial former director of the SSS, Lawal Daura."

He was actually invited but the media reported it as arrest

Efcc can be funny a times. So you wasted all this effort just to ask him about his colleague,. You should ve invited him secretly without all the media hype. Nawa for this country

Go and buy sense. Why would they arrest someone when they just want to question him?

Btw Staff has no plural.

Pls Nigerians(Pls i don't mean any apc because apc members are not Nigerians) can anyone tells me when did EFCC now become police, army, dss or sss in Nigeria?

Efcc, you arrest this man for what? Was their any money missing and if their is money missing how much are we talking about?

So you need to arrest someone to forcefully get information about others and pls what information are you looking for?

Is Daura accused of any loot or stolen cash or stolen property? Pls I don't get this foolishness by EFCC? Any way I know Magu will be the next he won't only be fire he will go to jail no doubt about that.

Did Magu even understand the full meaning of EFCC at all? I guess No. I can't blame him how are we sure he too is not a transmission transmitter ex police office Mr quota system benefactor.

Release of detain, Daura must go

Kudos to EFcc for the prompt release of an innocent man
Meanwhile when will Fayose Probe begin nah ..
Good people check my signature

Enemy of State

He was invited because all the money he left was mismanaged by Daura, Daura was trying to cover himself that is why he prevented the initial invitation so he won't be exposed.

The committee on arm deal had already cleared Ita long ago

This your news is fishy, please if it is possible for VP Yemi to sack that one too let him do it
